Clarification of pressure units: ONLINE and interp offline

edit

Hi there,

I'm trying to establish once and for all how to have pressure defined in: (i) the formatted ERA5 files to be handled in ONLINE interpolation, (ii) the interpolated ERA5 files to be read if ONLINE is undefined (croco_blk_YM.nc).

I understand that the units are millibar for ONLINE defined, and Pa otherwise.

Is this correct?

Also, I noticed in online_bulk_var.F that the name of the pressure variable is only included in the AROME section of the if statement. Therefore, I had to copy the short block relating to READ_PATM down to the ECMWF if statement to be able to consider pressure. This is something that I see needs correction on the main gitlab repository perhaps?

Regards
